It's amazing how many deadbeats in the auto trade have no idea where reverse is in anything except a rice rocket or commonwhore!

I never leave my cars with anyone. If I need tyres fitted I just pull the wheels off at home!!

Go and kick the guy up the date, then twice in the nuts and demand some money.

Which bits are busted Stu? I might be able to help out.

Jarrads wreck probably has the bits too.

they already were my bits! haha stu came round before and told me about this. he'll just fiddle with them till they're right. even then, they'll still be mk 1 linkages!

EDIT: I played around with tailgates, and some rust work. tidied the garage too.

Might need some linkage bushes too, I think I've still got a few to spare.
